Unless i am going blind, the text Schmegg wrote read as follows: "unless, of course, you feel that 1D shooters deserve better treatment than other forum users?"

So now explain to me where I misread something?!!

because he asked if the specific poster felt a certain way....he never said he (Schmegg) felt that way about all 1D shooters, as you suggest. That's what leads me to believe you misread.

My opinions are my own and not those of DPR or its administration. They carry no 'special' value (except to me and Lacie of course)

but to my mind, giving the totality of his posts thus far, the clear implication is that those wanting a separate 1D forum (like perhaps the person to whom he was responding) are seeking better treatment.

"seeking better treatment"? That would imply they are being treated poorly..but to my mind, they may not be. It's subjective. You just pointed that out and I agree.

And I find it laughable that anyone reading this entire thread and his posts would see it any differently (unless of course they are in need of remedial classes in English comprehension). So let me ask you this: if I think like the person to whom he is responding, how could it be that the person to whom he responds is seeking better treatment for 1D series users but I (or anyone else who thinks likewise) am not? The mind boggles.

I can see that your mind is indeed becoming confused. When he said "I did not say that all 1D users are elitist - nor do I think that". I took that at face value. I can see why it might have confused you as well. The internet can be a curse to communication
